Re: HP SiteScope - How to configure SNMP Traps

Thanks Gunnar for the reply.Well I understand how to create the snmp trap monitor and stuff.Right now we are currently trying to have snmp traps sent from another monitoring application to SiteScope.How do I know if the trap was sent or not as of right now there is no snmptrap.log or something?

I have been trying to send snmp traps to SiteScope but am not sure if SiteScope is receiving it.

Re: HP SiteScope - How to configure SNMP Traps

i am unable to send a snmp trap test message after configuring the default snmp preferences.I entered snmp version 2 but where in the preferences does it ask for an OID? And sorry if this may sound like a stupid question, but what OID would I enter?

Re: HP SiteScope - How to configure SNMP Traps

Ok well let me take that back. I got it working so that our windows sitescope instance is receiving the traps, however, i am still having trouble with our linux sitescope instances receiving the traps.

Re: HP SiteScope - How to configure SNMP Traps

Well when one of the SiteScope instances sends an snmp trap message to another SiteScope instance, I am able to see the message in /var/log/messages. However I am unable to see the snmp trap message in the SiteScope snmptrap.log file.

Re: HP SiteScope - How to configure SNMP Traps

Ok finally got it working.For some reason maybe port 162 must be accessed by root, so after changing the port to 1993, it worked.Now I am able to send snmp traps to both my linux and windows sitescope instances.Thanks,
